I wish him well. Hopefully all of us apply lessons learned from the inevitable misfires and steps backward. It is the rare person who never experiences failure and more the measure of a person on how one recovers.

He strikes me as someone who will learn from his mistakes. It was time for him to go from here, but I wouldn't be shocked if he builds on what he learned and eventually works out as a head coach elsewhere.

I wish him the best at whatever he does. No ill will towards him at all. I hope he learned a few things the first time around both in dealing with the administrative side and the coaching side. He is not a terrible coach but he needs mentally strong kids that have no doubts about their skills or else they will crumble vs. his style of coaching.

If he gets this or another job the first thing he needs to do is accept whatever he finds in his new situation and not complain about it. Ever. DD had a lot of things going against him here but he also showed a tendency to accentuate the negative in public.

I wouldn't read much into it, given where he's looking to go. Obviously, he wants to play in a more competitive league than the A-Sun (assuming the interest is mutual with at least some of the schools mentioned).
